So I passed my PhD viva yesterday! Massive thank you to my examiners @geoff_lau and Steve Edgley. Also thanks to my supervisor @eg_neuro for feeding me for 4 years and occasionally teaching me some science, as well as lab friends (see below) 🍕🍝👃🧠🐭
Why are some neurons more selective than others? We report now in @Nature how calcium permeable-AMPA receptors in PV neurons make them less selective to sensory features https://t.co/Y7sXbtE8I3 Long live the geniuses behind this🧠🔍https://t.co/87BqmXxYje @thainmueller @rhuganir
What a better day than the one where ohm and volts became official to submit a PhD thesis for the great electrophysiologist that you are @Liii_Huang 🔬⚡🧠
Congratulations 🎉🎉👩🎓
On September 4th, Los Angeles was founded, Beyoncé was born, and Ohm and Volts became official units of measure. Most importantly, on this day, I submitted my PhD thesis! #PhD#phdlife almost #PhiniseD
A sensitive single particle tracking method for endogenous AMPA receptors shows that plasticity-induced actin polymerization in the dendritic shaft regulates intracellular AMPA receptor trafficking. https://t.co/wdre760Cmm

📣Our “Icelandic” preprint is out!
Led by our country-hopping, cold-adapted patcher extraordinaire @neuro_sana and done between Cambridge & the Petersen lab @Haskoli_Islands, here’s our offering on the mitral vs tufted cell debate in the olfactory bulb

Thank you @SfNJournals to have published our Journal Club about an exciting new paper from the Ramirez Lab showing how important context is in an engram reactivation 🧠📰. #JNeurosci
Big thanks also to the great @Connor_Doyle_ who did this work with me 🙌

The teal squad is going to Iceland 🇮🇸
Thanks @ISOT2024Iceland and @ECRO_online for supporting the lab with travel grants, we cannot wait to bring lots of 👃🧠 data to Reykjavik
